Between June 15 and 17, the commercial interiors industry will descend upon the Merchandise Mart in Chicago for the 46th NeoCon show. Exhibitors will showcase thousands of new products for work, health care, hospitality, education, retail, and government spaces. Designers and manufacturers also use the opportunity to discuss the latest trends—more than 100 seminars will debate, among other things, the role of activity and movement in workplaces and the keys to creating good public spaces. Here is a preview of what to expect in Chicago in two weeks.

A collaboration with Los Angeles–based Rios Clementi Hale Studios (RCHS), the Rio system by is made up of backless, backed, concave, and convex elements that combine to form sinuous shapes. To celebrate Rio’s launch at NeoCon, along with Janus et Cie’s other collections, the furnishings manufacturer is raffling off four “curated” getaway excursions to industry professionals, with trips to locales ranging from the new Four Seasons Resort at Walt Disney World to the Casa Madrona Hotel & Spa in Sausalito, California.
